How To Identify A Beetle Infestation

Appearance - While there are more than 25,000 different beetle species in North America, all beetles share some characteristics. Regardless of species, all beetles have two hard, shell-like wings that cover more delicate wings underneath. These second wings are used for short flights.

Behavior - Seeing a lot of beetles, or a dramatic increase in the number of beetles in your house or on your property is the first means of identifying a beetle infestation. Different species of beetles, all of which can be troubling, feed on different sources. While some beetles feed on plants which can negatively affect your garden, others feed on wood, including the wood behind your walls or even in picture frames and wicker.

Why You Might Have Beetles

Beetles often seek out properties with a lot of vegetation for the plants themselves, as well as the other pests that are attracted to the plants. They also may enter homes for shelter and food sources if they feed on wood.

Various species of ground beetles can often develop high numbers in the summer and enter through gaps in doors and windows. Assessing the beetle population will determine if a beetle problem exists, and what species of beetle is causing the problem. This assessment will lead to customized beetle treatments to provide Metro Detroit beetle control to your property and home.
